From point shaving to openly racist head coaches to paying players, Kentucky is historically the dirtiest program in college basketball. John Calipari is a slippery little SOB who has a history of leaving schools right before they get NCAA sanctions (according to the NCAA, Calipari has been to zero Final Fours, despite being the head coach in two). That's why the marriage of Kentucky and Calipari seems so perfect.
In the short time since Coach Cal has been in Lexington, he has pulled in unbelievably recruiting classes. His most recent commitment came from Indianapolis guard Marquis Teague, a top 5 recruit in the Class of 2011.
Someone set up a fake Facebook account for Coach Cal and sent a Facebook message to Marquis Teague. Click here to read what was said (thanks to Holt for the link). It's vague, but Teague's response seems to be a tacit admission that there was some shadiness that went on with his recruitment. Kentucky fans, of course, suggest otherwise because they are part of the most delusional fan base in the world.
It would seem to me that this is something UK should look into, but I'm sure they won't, since these are the same people who hired Calipari in the first place.
